4 Operation
This instruction manual must be accessible to the operating
personnel at any time. The present instruction manual has to
be read carefully before installation or starting operation of the
side-channel blower.
Subject to modifications. In case of doubt clarification with the
manufacturer is required.

accessible to third parties without our explicit written consent.
Any form of duplication or recording and storage in electronic
equipment is forbidden.
1 Technical data
The following data apply to the standard version. Your side-channel
blower may differ from these data (see "rating plate").
Volumetric flow rate [m³/min]
Total pressure difference [mbar]
Max. permitted blower speed [rpm]
Operating capacitor [µF/V]
Rating plate
Details of electrical data can be found on the rating plate, which also
includes the model identification number and serial number which are
required for the ordering of spare parts.
2 Safety
Our side-channel blowers excel by a high degree of operating safety.
As the side-channel blowers are rather high-powered machines, the
safety instructions must be strictly adhered to in order to avoid
injuries, damage to objects and to the machine itself.
2.1Suction effect
Side-channel blowers produce a powerful suction effect.
Warning
Objects, items of clothing and also hair can be
sucked Into the intake port.
Danger of injury!
Do not stand near the intake opening during
operation.
Never operate the side-channel blower with open
Intake port. The open intake port must be covered
with a wire guard in accordance with DIN EN 294.
Do not reach into intake opening.
2.2Blowing effect
Warning
Powerful blow-out at the discharge flange. Sucked' In objects
may be ejected at very high speed (danger of injury).
Side-channel blowers are meant for conveying clean air only.
The sucking-in of solid particles and other contaminants - which
might be discharged - must be avoided at all times. These
objects have to be withheld before entering into the side-channel
blower by installing a filter. The side-channel blower may never
be operated with open discharge flange, and therefore has to be
protected with a wire guard in accordance with DIN EN 294. Do
not reach into the discharge opening.
2.3Temperature
Warning
The blower housing heats up during operation. If the
temperature exceeds +50° C, the side-channel blower must be
protected by the operator against direct contact (danger of
burning!).
2.4Motor circuit breaker
Before starting operation of the side-channel blower, the drive motor
has to be safeguarded by a motor circuit-breaker.
2.5Proper application
The side-channel blowers are designed for conveying clean air only.
Using them for
• aggressive
• poisonous
•explosive or
• very moist
media is not permitted.
The maximum permissible temperature of the conveyed medium for
the standard version is -30° C to +40° C. Solid particles or
contaminants must be withheld by a filter unit before entering the
side-channel blower.
The maximum ambient temperature must not exceed +40° C, the
minimum not below -20° C.
The side-channel blower cannot be operated in an explosive
atmosphere.
Special versions for applications not mentioned above are
available on demand.
Remodelling and modifications of the side-channel blower are not
allowed.
2.6Generation of noise
The noise generated by the side-channel blower is not constant over
the whole performance curve (see diagrams below).
In certain unfavourable cases a sound-absorbing device may be
required (measurements by the operator are recommended).
Sound-absorbing measures are to be carried out by the operator so
as not to exceed the legally permitted peak values at the work places
near of the side-channel blower.
3 Installation
3.1Transport
•Check all parts for damage during transport before installation and
starting of operation.
• Do not store the side-channel blower unprotected in the open
(protect against moisture).
• Attach hoist securely. Only use hoists and load suspension
devices with sufficient load-carrying capacity.
3.2Installation, assembly
• Install side-channel blower horizontally or vertically and
weather-protected.
• Do not subject to vibrations or shocks.
• Side-channel blower with base; to be secured tightly at site of
operation on solid, even ground.
•Side-channel blowers, which are placed on existing rubber
elements, must be secured against twisting.
• Open intake and discharge ports are to be protected by wire
guards in accordance with DIN EN 294.
• Ensure adequate motor cooling, max. ambient temperature
+40° C.
